Release Notes

v5.1.3

Date of Release: May 19, 2022

New Features and Enhancements

Component: Onboard Data

  • Restatement Window Support for Incremental Ingestion: Infoworks now allows the restatement of incremental data for all CDATA connectors and Generic JDBC. This option is applicable for Timestamp and Date watermark columns which enables an additional offset (decrement) to the starting point for ingested data. Records created or modified within the offset time period are included in the next incremental ingestion job. For more details, see Configuring a Generic JDBC Table and Configuring Additional Connectors.
  • OAuth Support for Salesforce Source Connector: Salesforce Source Connector now uses the Connected Apps method for OAuth/SAML based authentication. For more details, see Salesforce Configurations.
  • Infoworks now provides an API to write custom queries to fetch the required data and form it into a table. For more details, see REST API Documentation

Component: Platform

  • MongoDB Atlas Support for GCP: Infoworks can be configured to use hosted MongoDB Atlas service to store the metadata. Infoworks 5.1.3 supports enabling MongoDB Atlas either during a fresh installation, or upgrade from lower versions. For more details, see Infoworks Installation on GCP (MongoDB Atlas).
